Here's what nexuiz looks like on i950 intel graphix cards:

Epic, some of the textures actually show.

I remember one time me and my friends "modified" Doom 3 to run on an old pentium 3 machine with an onboard graphics chip. Changed the config files so it ran in 320*480 and turned off all sorts of stuff. It got like 10fps at most.

I think that if you cut out the first screenshot properly, you can sell it as modern art.

I just did a quick test and i couldn't reproduce any of those render bugs... The framerate on default settings is abysmal, except for the animated logos on reslimed i couldn't find any rendering errors (using low setting fixed that bug and resulted in almost playable framerated (without bots or players)).

The test system was my Sony SZ1M/B laptop with GMA950/i945GM and debian sid (xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.4.2-1).

That sucks Mikeeusa

The errors do not occur immediatly.
On slimepit it takes a few seconds and is in a certain spot.
On slimepipe it also takes a few seconds: https://cat2.optus.nu/nexuizserv/slimepipesmallctf6.pk3

On most other maps it doesn't happen.
On some other maps it doesn't completely chop, just other "lighter' triangles appear to flicker over the real triangles. (framerates halve).

This has been happening since 2.3 I think.

Before that it didn't happen.

Debian etch system.

something's wrong with the NexuizNinja server, is it? The thumbnails just won't load up

Yes, NN seems to be down.
Imagine modern art.

hehe

Have you upgraded to the latest drivers for your graphics card? Somtimes there are bugs in older drivers which alter the graphics cards performance on some software. Try downloading the latest drivers and make sure you have the latest version of Open GL and Direct X if you are running on a Windows machine.

I did some more testing today: judging by the error message thrown by the driver, this occurs when you run out of texture memory. Reducing the texture size (i just tested low.cfg) did indeed seem to fix the problem...

Since anything above low.cfg is pretty much unplayable anyway, this bug shouldn't cause too much problems
But if the problem persists with xf86-video-intel 2.5 (which has been released about a week ago), someone should file a bug report... (it won't be me, since i don't feel like building the driver myself, esp. since i don't use the intel gpu for 3D stuff anyway)
